This award supports the Biomedical Engineering Society (BMES) Annual meeting in San Antonio, Texas, 12-15 October 2022. The BMES Annual Meeting serves as the premier event for scientific sharing and dissemination amongst biomedical engineers in the academic, industry and educational sectors. Beyond research and educational presentations, the mission of the 2022 BMES annual meeting is to provide opportunities for building strategic networks, promoting career development and advancement, sharing ideas, recognizing and promoting talent, developing and promoting professional excellence, and broadening the participation of underserved and underrepresented groups. This award will provide critical support to enhance diversity of participants at the BMES Annual Meeting and advance inclusion and promote success in continuing in the Biomedical engineering (BME) educational pathway and profession. The 2022 BMES meeting will focus on the future to showcase innovative developments in research and education. The theme of this meeting is equity issues in healthcare and education stemming from racial and socioeconomic diversity, gender and sexual orientation, and disabilities. The meeting will connect research and education communities to stimulate new strategies to advance healthcare. The meeting will be highlighted by exciting plenary speakers, research sessions, workshops, and outreach programs that will provide valuable information and opportunities to engage with the biomedical engineering community. There will be activities at the 2022 Annual Meeting to increase participation from underrepresented minority engineering groups across multiple stages, including high school students, community college students, undergraduate, and graduate students, postdoctoral trainees and early career faculty and professionals. This award will support two merit-based awards (Student Chapter Awards), a High School Expo, and online streaming fee waivers for underserved individuals. These activities will help ensure value to a broader representation of BME Annual Meeting attendees and encourage diverse perspectives and innovative thinking in planning and evaluation of meeting activities. This broader representation at the BMES Annual Meeting will help expand participation of underrepresented groups in both BME and in engineering, and will contribute to engaging the future generation of biomedical engineers.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该奖项支持2022年10月12日至15日在德克萨斯州圣安东尼奥举行的生物医学工程学会（BMES）年会。BMES年会是学术界、工业界和教育界生物医学工程师之间科学分享和传播的首要活动。除了研究和教育介绍，2022年BMES年会的使命是为建立战略网络，促进职业发展和进步，分享思想，认识和促进人才，发展和促进专业卓越，扩大服务不足和代表性不足的群体的参与提供机会。该奖项将提供关键支持，以提高BMES年会参与者的多样性，并促进包容性，促进在生物医学工程（BME）教育途径和专业继续取得成功。 2022年BMES会议将聚焦未来，展示研究和教育领域的创新发展。本次会议的主题是源于种族和社会经济多样性，性别和性取向以及残疾的医疗保健和教育公平问题。会议将连接研究和教育界，以刺激新的战略，以促进医疗保健。会议将突出了令人兴奋的全体演讲者，研究会议，研讨会和推广计划，这将提供宝贵的信息和机会，与生物医学工程界进行接触。将有活动在2022年年会，以增加来自代表性不足的少数民族工程团体在多个阶段的参与，包括高中生，社区学院的学生，本科生，研究生，博士后培训生和早期职业教师和专业人士。该奖项将支持两个基于成绩的奖项（学生分会奖），一个高中博览会，以及对服务不足的个人的在线流媒体费用减免。这些活动将有助于确保BME年会与会者更广泛的代表性，并鼓励在规划和评估会议活动时采用不同的观点和创新思维。在BMES年会上更广泛的代表性将有助于扩大在BME和工程中代表性不足的群体的参与，并将有助于吸引未来一代的生物医学工程师。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估来支持。
